=== Religious significance ===
Soulcasters are extremely valuable for their various applications. [[Vorinism]] considers them to be holy, despite the betrayal of the [[Knights Radiant]] from whom they supposedly originated, because of how useful they are.{{wob ref|3817}} Their power to transform is closely tied to the Vorin belief in how the [[Almighty]] created Roshar.{{book ref|sa1|7}} In the Vorin countries, the use of Soulcasters is restricted to the [[ardent]]s and performed in extreme secrecy, either under the cover of night or with curtains set up to hide the happenings within.{{book ref|sa1|5}}{{book ref|sa2|35}} High-ranking [[lighteyes]] are often Soulcast into stone after death, so that they may be preserved forever.{{book ref|sa2|2}} Such funerals are the only times where Soulcasting is performed publicly.{{book ref|sa3|105}}
